Access rules – Minors must be accompanied by an adult. – Pushchairs and prams are not allowed on board but may be left on the quay. – Comfortable footwear is recommended. Open shoes and high heels are not permitted. – Animals are not allowed; small dogs are permitted only if carried.

Accessibility on board the Vespucci Please note that, due to the Ship’s structural characteristics—designed in an era when accessibility provisions were not in place—there may be limitations for visitors with reduced mobility. In particular, architectural barriers prevent the installation of ramps for wheelchair access. As a result, for technical and safety reasons, access cannot generally be guaranteed for visitors with mobility impairments requiring aids such as wheelchairs. The crew of the Amerigo Vespucci is fully committed to ensuring a welcoming and inclusive experience for all visitors. We recognise the importance of providing the best possible experience and, where feasible within the Ship’s structural constraints, individual cases will be assessed on site.
